Vladimir Lenin character jug modeled by Robert I. Tabbenor and produced by Royal Doulton of Burslem, England, in a 2016 limited edition of 100 commissioned by UK International Ceramics. Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov (1870-1924), better known as Vladimir Lenin, was the founder and first head of government of Soviet Russia from 1917 until his death in 1924, and of the Soviet Union from 1922 until his death. As the founder and leader of the Bolsheviks, Lenin led the October Revolution which established the world's first socialist state. His government won the Russian Civil War and created a one-party state under the Communist Party.
Ideologically a Marxist, his developments to the ideology are called Leninism. A tomb, statue and medallion form the handle of the jug. A brown jacket colorway is known to exist.
